As a licensed therapist trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), I help couples learn effective communication to enhance support with their partner. My background includes three years as a crisis counselor at a national su***de hotline. I've learned that a common theme among those in pain is not feeling understood or seen in the world. I’m a male marriage counselor licensed by the Cal
ifornia Board of Behavioral Sciences and trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) by the ICEEFT. I utilize my EFT training in sessions with couples at different stages of their relationship and I offer premarital counseling. Im an Inclusive Therapist providing LGBT Couples Counseling and Latinx Therapy, and I work with in*******al couples who may struggle with cultural differences. You might think that you have a better understanding of your romantic partner than anyone else. And yet, there will always be more to uncover and appreciate. But at a certain point in the relationship, deepening an understanding about yourself and your partner can become stagnant and sometimes cause harm; keeping you stuck in a repetitive cycle. Sometimes what you have learned to anticipate in the relationship and what your partner expects from you isn’t always helpful. Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) will uncover a deeper understanding of each other and the inner-workings of your relationship; the benefit is that you are the best people to help each grow along way. A wonderful benefit of working in Telehealth in California is I'm able to provide online relationship counseling in Los Angeles or Hollywood, virtual couples therapy in San Fransisco or Emeryville, virtual couples counseling in San Diego or Chula Vista, all within the same day. I can offer online marriage counseling for a young couple in Mountain View, online LGBT couples counseling in Los Angeles, premarital counseling in Santa Clarita for a recently engaged couple, or online emotionally focused couples therapy for an in*******al couple in Irvine experiencing cultural differences. Entering couples therapy with uncertainty can be scary. I’m glad to offer a free 10-minute phone consultation to talk about the benefits of couples counseling. Your Free 10 Minute Phone Consultation can be scheduled on my Calendly page if there are available times: https://calendly.com/alejandro-feelunderstood/consultation
